Sony releases Xperia X lineup of smartphones

The Xperia X Performance is a quite typical 2016 flagship with Snapdragon 820 SoC, 3GB of RAM and 5″ Full HD display. The design is more rounded than in the previous Sony flagships and the back of the device is now aluminium instead of glass. IP68 rating remains the same. Cameras are 23 and 13MP units and battery capacity is 2700mAh. The fingerprint scanner is placed on the power button on the right side and there are dual stereo speakers on the front.

The Xperia X has a downgraded Snapdragon 650 processor and 2620mAh battery but otherwise the specs are same as in the Performance model. The most affordable Xperia XA only has a 720p display, Mediatek Helio P10 SoC and 2GB of RAM. The battery is also smaller at 2300mAh and cameras are 13 and 8MP.

The Xperia X lineup will be available in summer and the pricing is unknown.
